LordRasta Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 Just got this watch today. I don't know why it took me so long to get one. I however found this on breitlingsource.com: "and the real ones when you turn the bezel, the glass does not move" How is this possible? What anchors the glass so it wouldn't move?

b16a2 Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 I'm quite sure how it work's but there is a gearing system that allows the bezel to move but still have water proof capabilities. So the outter bezel drives the inner bezel via a gearing system, rather than the two being part of the same structure. The crystal can therefore be fixed in a set position.

Has anybody pressuretested his bentley? (my dealer says that it's waterproof, but I don't want to try it, and in my city nobody can do a pressure test...

RRFAN Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 I've always wondered this too. From a review on youtube by breitlingsource the bezel moves just like the one on my rep. The bezel rotates the outer set of numbers. I just guess the glass if fixed. Been meaning to check a gen out in a AD for years now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
